A Guston man was arrested Sunday on multiple charges including assault and menacing after a fight with a relative spilled over into a parking lot in Elizabethtown.
Shaun Delbert Taylor, 44, is accused to have punched a relative in the parking lot of the Buffalo Wild Wings strip center, according to his arrest citation.
When an Elizabethtown police officer arrived, Taylor and the relative were separated and Taylor admitted to getting into a physical altercation with the relative. Taylor admitted to having several beers throughout the day and a strong alcohol smell was noticed from his breath, according to the officer.
Taylor’s family members confirmed he started the altercation by throwing a punch, and the altercation continued into the parking lot where the two kept throwing punches and yelling at each other.
The fight eventually was broken up by a resident in the parking lot who said Taylor squared up as if he was going to fight him, but no altercation took place, according to police.
After Taylor was arrested, the citation said he was taken to Baptist Health Hardin because he was complaining of heart problems.
At the hospital, Taylor refused treatment from the nurses, yelling and cursing at them and even threatening to physically assault one, police reported.
Taylor’s behavior and refusal of treatment resulted in him being discharged and taken to the Hardin County Detention Center.
Taylor was charged with alcohol intoxication in a public place; menacing; third-degree terroristic threatening; fourth-degree assault — domestic violence, minor injury; and second-degree disorderly conduct.
